Joe Hachem vs. Troy Baker
Hey it wasn't the WSOP but it was fun to battle the Aussie and actually get a nut flush (how ironic) to eliminate him. THen him, Esfondiari and Kevin O'Donnell played high stakes blackjack and other games for up to $1000/hand.
These guys were real nice and down to earth. Next to Nascar they are arguably the most down t earth there are in any profession.

Kevin O'Donnell has a bar in Scottsdale. Me and a friend got a company going called All In Inc. www.goallininc.com KO's is the bar and Hachem was coming to LA for a 10k tourny and stopped in to visit Kevin. If you go to my MySpace you can see KO on my friends list and he has pics with Nash and the Aussie crew including Hachem. Well we had a tourny which is part of this poker league and not only did Joseph show Antonio showed up too as a surprise. I took out Hachem with A-10 spades. Finished 6th out of 200 + but it is obvious what my story was after. Not only that but he spoke with me and Katrina for a good while outside during the side games in which Esfandiari took KO for about 82k in blackjack. Awesome night. Hachem told many stories including being treated so much better in the US than his homeland. He jokingly said I had a great story to tell after our encounter. I said yeah you'll forget about it tomorrow. He said forget about what? After a few seconds we both erupted in laughter. Very down to earth and GREAT guy. I already liked his game but he is an even better person. If anyone is in AZ and wants to play poker go to the site and look for locations. I am Fo Acez on the site. I am ranked like 11th I think. Many tournies lead to seats to the WSOP. ($1500 buy-ins) Also we are doing drinks, tourny brackets and drawings, Suns game and my BDay at Churchills in Chandler.
